If anybody else has gotten theirs done around here, please chime in.

Yup...I got the same message...if you find anyone, let me know...


anyway...I'm getting the HPS brakes instead since Marcus had those in stock and I could get those before Saturday...

hahaha....Xizor said the same thing and i told him i was just messing around. I did do it however by myself in like 40 mins and assume that with help i could do it prob in like 30 mins or so.......i don't use a hex key when i did, i just used needle nose vise grips to hold the nut and use a air ratchet and pulled those off. Then unbolted the exhaust from the piping and it drops right out. Although, we won't prob have air tools so it make take longer....lol

Bring plenty of sunscreen because I think you're probably going to be the palest one there by far.

What brand/type do you guys recommend for brake grease? I read Molykote M77 in another thread, but if there's something I can pick up at Advanced auto, that'll be great... thanks!

I actually just checked this thread after a few weeks and found out it was today. I would've liked to go but I won't be able to make it. My g/f flies back in tonight so I have quite a bit of cleaning to do (which I would've done yesterday had I read this thread before).

It would've been nice to compare where people ran their camera wires and the such (as well as check out some other rides). My baby is injured right now, too, as someone backed into me in a parking lot on Wednesday (their insurance is taking care of it and it will go to the shop this week).

Anywho, have fun guys! Sorry I couldn't make it.

Well guys, i am officially back at my house after trying to come down there and meet up. I was driving from just north of Philly when i hit Deleware and they were doing construction on 95 S and i hit a HUGE pothole and it bubbled my tire REALLY back. The steel reinforcing bent out and was making noise. I had to turn around and go back to get it taken care of. I put my car in the driveway with the donut on it and ordered a new tire. I really wanted to come down and made it about 40% of the way there but i couldn't chance it with a bad tire I'm sorry guys, i will be at the next one!

I have had bad luck and i think i need to stop modding for a while. First my spoiler gets stolen and now i need a new tire and alignment since the car fades to the right really BAD!!!

Have fun and i'm sorry i can't make it.....

Hey guys, sorry you couldn't make it. I'm going to make a picture thread in the Pics subforum soon w/ some shots, I only got about 100 of them today. Chris probably has more.

Anyone else who has pics, post them in the pics thread in a bit!

For the Rockville area, definitely in for me.


Just give me a date and time, and I'll be there. Just don't expect anything new/good on my car. They're waiting for "AFTER" winter
